David Adams (loyalist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | David Adams (loyalist) David Adams (born c. 1953〔) is a Northern Irish loyalist activist and former politician. He was instrumental in bringing about the loyalist ceasefire of 1994 and played a leading role in the early stages of the Northern Ireland peace process. ==Emergence in politics== A native of Lisburn, Adams was a member of the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) although he did not hold any position of importance within the movement and was never imprisoned. From early on, Adams was much more involved in the political side of loyalism rather than the paramilitary side.〔Peter Taylor, ''Loyalists'', Bloomsbury, 2000, p. 215〕 Unlike many of his contemporaries in the UDA, Adams was grammar school educated and gained a reputation as an articulate speaker.〔McDonald & Cusack, ''UDA'', p. 269〕 Adams, who lived near the Maze Prison and served as a community worker in the area, joined the Ulster Democratic Party (UDP) after being encouraged to do so by Ray Smallwoods.〔Henry McDonald & Jim Cusack, ''UDA - Inside the Heart of Loyalist Terror'', Penguin Ireland, 2004, p. 175〕
